Fed Up With A Messy Van?

One of the main reasons our customers come to us is they’re fed up with having a messy van. Not only are they not portraying a professional image to their customers, but they’re wasting a lot of time rummaging around their van looking for tools they’ve flung in the back after a long day.

Sound familiar?

The simple fact is that lost time in business - whether you’re a self-employed tradesperson or running a small fleet - equals lost money. Aside from being plain dangerous, having unsecured tools and equipment rolling about the back of the van means you’re wasting precious time looking for them. Not to mention all that time lost untangling tools and searching for fixings.

Researchers have estimated that tradespeople spend at least 30 minutes a day searching for their tools and equipment. That’s a minimum of 130 hours of lost productivity, or more than 16 days a year. Let’s your day rate averages £200, you’ve said goodbye to £3,250 in profits this year.

A messy van is also off-putting to customers. First impressions count and arriving in a well-equipped and well-organised van means you’re bound to impress your customers. Your client will feel confident that you’re not a cowboy. And your van will double as advertising to attract new business. A win, win.
